💬 MY COMMENT:
I feel like this is how it is with humans - no longer able to calculate or limit how much they are spending/ And then eventually give all their power away to be 'whatever they say it is'.

@freeschool It happens in tons of ways with humans, the tail bone is a good example.

There is no reason to think social constructs arent indirectly effected by similar processes. Maybe people are just getting dumber.
